1887.-In obedience to the law and the
national instinct, which has consecrated
one day in every year for general

mercies, ond in accordance with the
proclamation already made by the chief

mind, i'll rehearsing the material
and spiritual blessings of the year, and
uniting with one heart in graceful &C
acknowledgements for the general and
particular evidences of our heavenly
Father.
The fields have yielded their increase,
the focks have multiplied In their stalls
and there is no lack OF good things in
all our borders. The workshops and

Of trade, enlarged and extended ave-
nucs of commerce have been crowded
with the products of toll, and the will

his reward.
In acknowledging and accepting the
vast material increase which has come
to the commonwealth, let us also prac-
tice those virtues which also can make
our abundance permanent good. With
iiustice toward all classes of society,
with bounty for the poor and unfortu-
nate, with the restla amt and unnatural
and hnrtful desires, we may hope by
the aid Of universal education and with
public and private morality to continue
Il free, prosperous and happy people.
Letthis day also be an occasion for

the citizens of Minnesota.

The Minneapolis Tribune is at it
again, slandering the fair fame of Louis
vile, as follows:
MOODY will tackle Louisville this
winter, Unless he con convince his
hearers that the river Of life flows pure
old sour mash his labors in that town
will be a dead failure"
The Kentuckians do believe in sour
mash, which they know how to make,
but their faith in Moody is not as strong
as their whisky. Moody is one of those
christians (?) who believe in ladling
out the gospel to Colored People in the

If there is any truth in the reports
that come from Hurley, Wis, of the

A NIGHT IN GERMANY.

Those who attended the entertain
nent given by Prof. G. F. Adams Ger
man class at Turner Hall last evening,
saw on the stage class consisting of
white and colored pupils; in age rang
ing from IA to so.
A colored pianist opened the enter
tainment with piece of his own compo-
sition called '"The Battle of Belmont"
in which he displayed remarkable dex-
terity.
In consideration Of the fact that .he
course only lasted six weeks, the de-
CARNATIONS were without exception sat
isfactory. Miss Lulu Griswold recited
1.-THE Erlking'' nicely and Mr.. R. w.
Richardson's defamation The German
Fatherland' was excellently rendered.
The class sung s'The Watch on the
Rhine, Always Cheerful aBlue
blooms little flower" and America
with much expression.
Prof. Adams sang a waltz-song enti-
tied First Love" and proved himself
qualified singer.
Miss Ellis B. Smith sang Ye merry
Birds" very nicely. The finest perfor-
nance fthe evening, however, was the
soprano solo Thou art 50 near and yet
so far which was rendered by Mrs. w.
H. Clay; she has q beautiful pure voice.
All the exercises were received by the
large audience with great applause. In
behalf of the class Miss Ella b. Smith
presented Mr.. Adams a beautiful medal,
the seventh he has received, as a token
of the appreciation of his successful
achievement, which he received with
hearty thanks. Prof. Adams then asked
t the Germans present to criticise the per
formances and received fattering COM
plimsnts from those present ups
on his success. After the Professor had
announced that he would form another
class pleasant dance followed " lks-

Some time ago you induced me to try
your Smoke Ball. At the time had q
child suffering with very bad whooping
cough. He could hardly lie down, as Il
phlegm, and in his efforts to throw off
this. strlngy phlegm he was constantly
vomiting his food as fast as taken IN. I
made him inhale the smoke from the ball
three times for day, and inside of 4S
hours broke the cough up. From the
start the smoke altered the character of
the secretions; they became loose and
easily thrown off in the form of matter,
and the child recovered fully in a few
days. Since that have used the Smoke
Ball in my family for all ordinary colds,
for which it gives instant relief and q
speedy cure. Respectfully. &c,

From the San FrdBcisc0 Post.
Kentucky, the mother Of Colonies, has
reason to look to her shoulder straps.
California is already good second, aud
there is a reasonable prospect that With N
q few years we shall be able to show more
military titles to the area than any State
OF the Union. We see that the Sons of
Veterans are carrying on the grand ork.
Their chief officer is q Colonel, the next
is Lieutenant Colonel, the next Major,
and so on. In the order OF the Sons OF
Veterans Colonies will retire from office
and new ones will be created, but this will
but multiply Colonies indefinitely.
Once Colonel always a
Colonel That title bestowed, and
onlC death or higher rank can part it and
it's pleased owner. In one respect we have
already lett Kentucky away behind. We
not only screw military titles on civilians,
but we clothe the peaceful citizen in the
garb of the warrior. Societies, purely
social and benevolent IN their purposes,
uniform their members like army officers
and endow them with swords. Thus it
comes that young man who is not a
Colonel or Major to mis- acqualntances,
or who has not military uniform laid
away In his trunk, feels a sense OF singu-
